Planning collision-free paths for multiple robots traversing a shared space is a problem that grows combinatorially with the number of robots. The naive centralised approach soon ...
This paper presents a novel error-free (infinite-precision) architecture for the fast implementation of both 2-D Discrete Cosine Transform and Inverse DCT. The architecture uses a...
There are several approaches for pen-based systems to improve legibility of handwritten text, e.g. smoothing the strokes composing the characters and words. A very challenging sol...
